Orchids For Sale in the Minneapolis & St. Paul Metro

β€œAn orchid in a deep forest sends out its fragrance even if no one is around to appreciate it.”
Confucius

Orchids are a wildly variable, beautiful, and unmatched type of flower. They are valued worldwide for their unmatched variety and beauty, which makes them a great option for any homeowner looking to elevate their indoor or outdoor home garden. At Wagners Greenhouses, your premier source for Minnesota orchids, we provide a wide and ever-changing seasonal selection of the beautiful plant.

The orchids found at our greenhouse are turgid, pest-free, blemish-free, and with lustrous, well-cared for flowers. Come take a look at the seasonal varieties we’re currently carrying anytime!

How to Care for an Orchid

In order for their flowers to bloom, all orchids need to receive enough light. You’ll know your orchid is receiving enough light if their foliage is light and yellow-green, with strong upright growths. Long story short: give them a lot of sun without setting them on proverbial fire. Orchids need a lot of air to thrive, which is why you’re never supposed to plant them in soil. What you pot orchids in should be open, with good drainage – collections of materials like bark, charcoal, and moss work best.

Finally: Water. Overwatered orchids suffer root loss until they can’t absorb any more nutrients, grow weak, and die. There is no golden rule other than to water them as they dry out. You’ll be able to tell when a potted orchid is dry via a few signs, including if the surface of the mix appears dry, if the pot itself feels lighter, and if a skewer inserted into the mix will come out dry. When you do water your orchids, do so until it runs from the drainage holes of the pot you keep it in.

Interesting Facts About Orchids
